Peaceable
Estate

NOt
to
insist
upon
the
Antiquity
,
Nobility
,
nor
the
first
foundation
and
scituation
of
this
glorious
City
,
comparing
it
with
others
(
of
old
)
rarely
remarkable
;
now
demolisht
and
ruin'd
:
neither
with
those
contemporary
or
at
this
present
in
greatest
prosperity
,
either
for
Magnificent
structure
,
or
Grave
and
godly
Government
;
because
it
hath
bin
the
Annuall
argument
,
suiting
with
the
occasion
now
in
agitation
:
let
them
therefore
passe
as
conclusions
granted
,
&
principles
against
which
there
is
no
disputation
to
be
held
;
since
for
beautifull
Architectures
,
Pallaces
,
Rialtoes
,
Guilds
,
Arcenalls
,
Temples
,
Cathedralls
,
Aquaeducts
&c.

further
for

in

Countries

in

&c.
In
which
the
most
famous
Cities
of
the
World
,
Athens
,
Thebes
,
Lacedemon
,
nor
Rome
it selfe
the
Metropolis
of
the
Roman
Empire
,
could
in
her
most
flourishing
estate
and
Potency
,
(
though
she
Tyranniz'd
over
the
whole
World
,
)
in
the
least
compare
with
London
.
And
in
the
way
of
Competitor-ship
,
the
Spartan
Ephori
,
the
Athenian
Areopagitae
,
with
Romes
purple
Optimates
,
may
subscribe
to
her
scarlet
Senate
;
no

in

whatsoever
being
graced

Sollemne

I
come

one
of

which
may
claime
one
speciall
priority
above
the
rest
:
in
regard
that
Sir
Henry
Fitz-Alwin
was
of
that
Fraternity
,
and
the
first
Lord
Major
,
who
might
bee
rather
cald

there
hath
not

sixe

all

approve

:
I
have
nominated
these
amongst
many
,
&c.
but
I
come
now
to
the
first
shew
by
water
.
The
first
Shew
by
water
.
IS
a
person
representing
the
ancient
River
Nilus
,
mounted
in
a
Sea-Chariot
,
and
seated
upon
a
silver
Scallop
(
the
plat-forme
decored
with
Marine
Nimphs
and
Goddesses
)
his
habit
suiting
with
the
nature
of
the
river
,
in
his
right
hand
a
seven-forked
Scepter
,
alluding
to
the
seven
heads
,
or
as
many
Channells
through
which
he
runnes
;
and
therefore
by
Ovid
,
cald
Septem-fluus
:
he
is
drawne
by
two
Crocadiles
,
which
may
be
reckoned
amongst
the
Amphibiae
,
as
living
in
,
and
pertaking
of
the
two
Elements
,
Earth
and
Water
:
the
river
it selfe
by
sundry
Inundations
watereth
the
whole
Land
of
Aegypt
,
leaving
behind
it
a
slime
,
or
moist
Clay
,
which
serveth
for
a
male
or
manuring
,
to
make
the
soyle
more
fertill
.
The
originall
head
from
which
it
flowes
is
uncertaine
,
which
Claudian
thus
expresseth
:
Et
Arcanos
Nili
deprendite
fontes
.
The
Ecclesiasticall
Writers
hold
it
for
one
of
the
foure
rivers
that
floweth
from
the
earthly
Paradise
;
in
divers
places
it
changeth
name
,
according
to
the
scituation
of
the
shores
through
which
it
runnes
:
it
brings
forth
Reedes
,
whose
filmes
or
inward
rinds
are
much
like
our
Paper
,
and
for
a
need
may
be
writ
upon
;
and
therefore
by
the
Poets
cald
Nilus
papyrifer
:
of
all
other
rivers
it
onely
breedeth
Crocadiles
,
and
Hippotami
,
Aequi
fluviales
,
Sea
Horses
.
The
Crocadile
is
a
Serpent
that
from
a
small
Egge
,
growes
in
short
time
to
a
mighty
length
and
bignesse
,
for
some
of
them
have
bin
22
Cubits
long
,
it
hath
●our
feet
,
with
which
he
runnes
as
swiftly
on
land
as
hee
swims
by
water
;
he
is
bold
over
those
that
fly
him
,
but
fearefull
of
those
that
pursue
him
;
the
foure
winter
moneths
,
November
,
December
,
Ianuary
and
February
,
he
eats
not
at
all
;
hee
hath
no
tongue
,
but
teeth
sharpe
and
long
;
neither
in
feeding
doth
he
move
his
lower
jaw
:
briefly
,
hee
is
terrible
to
man
and
beast
,
and
preyes
on
both
;
but
I
leave
them
and
come
to
the
speaker
.
Nilus
.
NIlus

ancient
River

to
excell
Amongst
those

(

now

Who
drew

hither

Of

inauguration
.
Grave
and
judicious
Praetor
,
O
make
me
Your
happy
Embleame
;
since
as
I
foresee
By
reason
,
that
in
Aegypt
falls
no
raine
,
There
needs
must
be
a
dearth
of
grasse
and
graine
;
Therefore
,
by
frequent
Inundations
,
I
In
my
great
care
,
that
needfull
want
supply
:
So
Magistrates
(
of
which
you
prime
and
best
We
must
acknowledge
)
ought
to
the
distrest
:
In
your
known
gravity
and
goodnesse
cast
The
future
to
provide
for
,
salve
what
's
past
.
My

Scepters

Seven

.
And
as

Crocodiles
I
sway
,
(
Monsters
,
which
both
by
land
and
water
prey
)
If
any
such
here
breed
?
as
some
no
doubt
,
In
place
and
Office
may
be
;
search
them
out
:
And
then
,
what
greater
honour
can
you
claime
,
Then
such
rude
beasts
like
me
to
curbe
and
tame
?
But
y'
are
too
long
detain'd
;
I
next
commend
you
,
Vnto
those
Triumphs
that
on
Land
attend
you
.
The
second
Shew
,
but
the
first
by
Land
IS
Ianus
,
plac'd
upon
an
Artificiall
Structure
,
built
in
a
square
modell
,
at
the
foure
corners
whereofsit
foure
Persons
representing
the
foure
seasons
;
Spring
,
Summer
,
Autume
,
Winter
;
every
one
habited
agreeable
to
his
propriety
and
condition
.
The
name
Ianus
is
borrowed
from
the
Hebrew
word
Iain
,
which
implyeth
Vinum
,
wine
,
being
held
to
bee
the
first
that
planted
the
Vine
.
Some
report
him
to
have
bin
an
ancient
King
of
Italy
amongst
the
Aborigines
,
An.
mun.
2629.
&
before
Christ
1319.
who
received
Saturne
flying
from
his
Son
Iupiter
,
&
taught
him
the
use
of
Agriculture
and
Tillage
.
Historians
report
him
to
have
bin
the
wisest
King
in
his
dayes
;
remembring
things
past
,
and
predicting
what
was
futurely
to
come
;
&
therefore
they
figured
him
with
two
faces
:
he
was
Deified
after
his
death
,
to
whom
Numa
dedicated
a
Temple
,
shut
in
the
time
of
peace
,
open
in
the
time
of
warre
;
from
which
he
had
the
denomination
of
Ianus
Patuleius
,
and
Clausius
:
some
thinke
him
to
have
bin
Ogyges
,
others
Noah
,
with
one
face
looking
backward
upon
the
world
before
the
Flood
,
the
other
forward
on
that
since
the
Flood
:
they
also
called
the
one
the
face
of
Government
,
the
other
of
Labour
.
His
standing
upon
such
fixt
bases
admonisheth
all
Magistrates
,
and
men
of
Honour
,
to
be
constant
in
all
their
courses
;
but
especially
in
the
establishing
and
maintenance
of
true
Religion
:
He
holdeth
in
his
right
hand
a
golden
Key
to
shut
up
the
yeare
past
,
as
never
more
to
come
;
and
open
to
the
yeare
future
:
it
may
also
be
an
Embleme
of
noble
policy
to
unbosome
and
bring
to
light
their
trecherous
devises
and
stratagems
,
who
seeke
to
undermine
and
supplant
the
prosperity
of
a
faire
&
flourishing
Common-weale
.
Upon
the
Key
are
two
Greeke
letters
ingraven
,
ξ
and
ε
and
on
a
bar
in
his
left
hand
the
letter
τ
all
being
numerall
,
and
make
up
365
,
the
number
of
the
dayes
in
our
solary
yeare
;
of
which
by
some
hee
is
stil'd
the
Father
:
the
bar
in
his
left
hand
implyeth
the
Fortitude
required
in
every
good
Magistrate
,
in
the
incouragement
of
vertue
,
and
suppressing
of
vice
&c.

The
third
show
IS
Orpheus
with
his
Harpe
,
seated
in
a
faire
Plat-forme
,
beautified
with
pleasant
Trees
,
upon
which
are
pearcht
severall
Birds
,
and
below
Beasts
of
all
sorts
,
who
notwithstanding
being
of
severall
conditions
,
and
opposite
natures
,
yet
all
imagined
to
be
attentive
to
his
Musick
.
This
Show
hath
reference
to
the
title
of
the
whole
Triumph
,
Status
pacatus
,
A
peaceable
and
blest
estate
,
in
which
our
Soveraigns
Royalty
hath
a
correspondence
with
Saturnes
Reigne
,
which
was
cald
the
golden
world
.
There
were
foure
most
excellent
of
the
Harpe
,
remembred
unto
us
by
the
ancient
Poets
,
who
are
likewise
the
Emblemes
of
the
foure
Elements
:
Apollo
the
Son
of
Iupiter
and
Latona
,
(
killing
the
Dragon
Pithon
)
of
fire
.
Amphion
the
Son
of
Iupiter
and
Antiope
,
figured
with
a
Camelion
of
Ayre
.
Arion
the
Methimnian
riding
upon
a
Dolphin
,
of
water
:
and
Orpheus
the
Thracian
(
thus
accomodated
)
of
the
Earth
:
and
these
attributes
were
confer'd
on
them
for
their
severall
Ayres
,
and
straines
in
Musick
:
this
Orpheus
was
the
Sonne
of
Apollo
,
who
instructed
him
on
the
Harpe
,
upon
which
he
grew
so
excellent
that
the
Woods
and
Mountaines
followed
him
;
the
Rivers
staid
their
course
,
and
the
wild
beasts
,
and
birds
their
prey
,
with
Trees
,
and
stones
were
said
to
be
attentive
to
his
Musicke
:
of
him
much
more
might
be
spoken
,
but
to
shorten
circumstance
I
come
to
his
Speech
.

Nquire

is
said
That
when
Apolloes
Son
,
(
I
Orpheus
)
plaid
Vpon
my
Harpe
:
the
rivers
if
they
swel'd
Above
their
bankes
or
Torrents
that
rebeld
;
Grew
smooth
to
heare
my
musicke
:
and
forbore
To
vexe
the
Channels
,
or
molest
the
Shore
.
The
Panther
,
Tyger
,
the
wild
Boare
,
the
Beare
,
Forget
their
rage
,
to
give
me
attentive
eare
,
Lions
with
Lambs
together
coucht
in
love
,
As
dreadlesse
by
the
Falcon
pearcht
the
Dove
:
The
Hounds
their
pursuite
did
leave
off
,
and
there
Sate
Hart
,
and
Hare
,
close
by
them
without
feare
:
The
sad
predicting
Raven
,
from
the
Oake
(
Hollowed
with
age
)
was
not
once
heard
to
croake
,
Nor
any
Bird
of
harsh
throate
:
onely
then
The
Nightingale
,
the
Robin
,
and
the
Wren
With
all
their
musicall
quire
,
in
silent
groanes
,
(
Affraide
to
sing
out
)
cherrupt
to
my
Tones
.
The
very
Trees
I
did
so
much
intrance
,
They
shooke
their
bowes
because
they
could
not
dance
:
But
,
Stones
not
rooted
,
but
above
the
ground
Mov'd
in
rare
postures
to
my
Harps
sweet
sound
:
I
the
foure
blustering
Brothers
rage
make
calme
,
And'stead
of
violent
gusts
to
breath
soft
balme
.
Yet
there
's
an
Harmony
which
doth
rejoyce
Mans
heart
,
more
than
the
Jnstrument
,
or
Voyce
;
The
Gitterne
,
Harpe
,
the
Viol
,
and
the
Lute
,
When
that
is
heard
to
sound
may
all
stand
mute
;
Whose
happy
Symptoms
more
contentment
brings
Than
any
Consort
,
made
by
breatb
or
strings
:
And
sends
a
sweeter
rapture
to
the
eares
Than
that
above
;
made
by
th'
orbicular
Spheares
.
May
it
your
grave
Pretorian
wisedome
please
,
You
are
that
Orpheus
who
can
doe
all
these
:
If
any
streame
beyond
its
bounds
shall
swell
,
You
beare
the
Trident
that
such
rage
can
quell
.
When
beasts
of
Rapine
(
trusting
to
their
power
)
Would
any
of
your
harmelesse
stocks
devoure
:
Yours
is
the
sword
that
can
such
violence
stay
,
To
keepe
the
Rich
from
rigour
,
Poore
from
prey
;
Neither
from
any
harshall-boading
beake
,
Least
discord
shall
be
heard
,
when
you
but
speake
;
Whilst
in
Harmonious
quire
the
rest
contend
,
Which
in
your
praise
each
other
shall
transcend
.
Trees
rooted
in
selfe-will
,
and
(
which
seemes
strange
)
Even
sencelesse
stones
you
into
life
may
change
.
This
Wisedome
can
;
yet
there
's
a
more
Devine
Concordancy
,
which
farre
exceedeth
mine
:
That
's
of
unanimous
hearts
;
plenty
,
increase
;
With
all
Terrestriall
blessings
waite
on
peace
:
Which
whilst
maintain'd
in
your
Commerce
and
Trade
,
Proves
sweeter
Musicke
than

The
fourth
Show
IS
a
Chariot
drawne
by
two
Cammells
,
upon
eithers
back
an
Indian
mounted
,
and
habited
according
to
the
manner
of
their
Country
:
of
Cammells
there
be
two
sorts
,
the
Bactrian
,
and
Arabian
;
and
differ
thus
:
The
Bactrians
have
two
bunches
or
swellings
on
the
backe
,
and
are
called
Dromedaries
:
the
Arabians
but
one
,
and
another
on
the
breast
,
on
which
they
leane
when
they
lye
downe
to
rest
:
They
want
the
upper
order
of
teeth
,
and
are
some
times
used
in
War
,
in
velocity
exceeding
horses
;
but
most
commonly
for
burdens
,
every
one
being
acquainted
with
his
owne
lading
according
to
his
strength
;
lesse
weight
they
desire
not
,
and
more
they
will
not
beare
:
they
are
taught
to
kneele
till
they
have
their
load
,
and
then
they
rise
of
themselves
.
Neither
in
their
journey
will
they
change
their
pace
;
they
can
abstaine
from
water
foure
dayes
together
,
but
then
they
drinke
as
well
for
the
time
past
,
as
that
to
come
;
yet
not
before
with
their
feet
they
have
troubled
the
streame
:
they
live
to
fifty
yeares
,
and
some
to
an
hundred
;
and
though
the
pelleted
Lyons
might
have
serv'd
more
properly
to
this
place
,
as
being
supporters
of
the
Armes
belonging
to
the
Right
Worshipfull
Company
of
the
Drapers
;
yet
these
are
as
genuine
to
the
purpose
:
to
show
his
Lord-ships
generall
negotiation
in
all
kinds
of
Merchandise
whatsoever
.
I
cannot
stand
to
speake
much
of
the
Fleece
,
but
of
Iason
,
and
Medea
,
(
thus
briefly
;
)
Jason
signifieth
sanans
,
or
healing
,
Medea
consilium
,
or
Counsell
:
he
was
the
Son
of
Aeta
,
his
Father
was
no
sooner
dead
but
he
left
the
Kingdome
to
his
brother
Pelias
,
who
set
him
upon
an
adventure
to
fetch
the
golden
Fleece
from
Colchos
:
to
which
purpose
hee
caused
the
Argoe
to
be
built
,
in
which
sixty
of
the
prime
Princes
of
Greece
accompanied
him
;
whom
Medea
the
Daughter
of
Aeta
King
of
Colchos
courteously
entertained
with
all
the
rest
of
the
Argonauts
:
and
being
greatly
inamoured
of
him
,
and
affraide
least
he
should
perish
in
the
attempt
;
knowing
the
danger
he
was
to
undergoe
,
upon
promise
of
Marriage
,
she
taught
him
how
he
should
tame
the
Brazen-footed
Bulls
,
&
to
cast
the
Dragon
that
watched
the
Fleece
into
a
dead
sleepe
:
which
hee
did
,
and
by
slaying
him
bore
away
the
prize
.
The
rest
I
leave
to
the
Speaker
,
which
is
Medea
.
THus
doth
the
daughter
of
the
Colchian
King
,
Her
Husband
Jason
home
in
Triumph
bring
,
After
his
mighty
Conquest
of
the
Fleece
;
The
Aureum
vellus
brought
from
thence
to
Greece
.
And
wast
not
a
brave
prise
?
for
who
so
dull
Cannot
conceive
the
worth
of
golden
wooll
?
The
mornings
Sun
upon
their
Fleeces
shines
,
Making
the
fields
appeare
like
richest
Mines
.
One
of
the
first
we
reade
of
was
the
Ram
,
Vpon
whose
back
Phrixus
and
Helle
swam
The
Hellespont
:
she
to
her
lasting
fame
(
By
being
drown'd
there
,
gave
the
Sea
that
name
:
)
But
Phrixus
safely
did
to
Colchos
steere
,
And
on
Joves
Alter
sacrificed
there
The
golden
Beast
,
whose
faithfull
service
done
,
With
the
Celestiall
gods
such
favour
won
;
That
striving
'mongst
themselves
to
have
him
grac'd
,
Him
first
of
all
the
Zodiak
signes
they
plac'd
.
And
worthily
,
search
the
vast
earth
or
deep
,
No
beast
to
man
,
so
usefull
as
the
sheep
:
How
many
poore
men
doth
it
keepe
in
pay
,
Of
several
Trades
and
faculties
;
else
they
Might
starve
for
want
of
lively-hood
:
but
their
charge
bearing
By
Carding
,
Spinning
,
Weaving
,
Fulling
,
Shearing
.
How
with
her
flesh
we
are
satisfi'd
within
,
Cloath'd
with
her
Wooll
without
;
in
whose
shorne
skin
Those
reverent
antiquities
are
kept
,
Which
else
long
since
had
in
oblivion
slept
:
And
for
the
Fleece
it selfe
,
it
is
an
honour
;
First
Nature
,
and
since
Time
,
hath
cast
upon
her
,
So
great
,
so
eminent
,
so
meriting
praise
,
Even
Emperours
were
it
on
their
Feastivall
dayes
:
And
none
that
ever
her
true
vertue
knew
,
But
rated
her
with
Ophir
,
and
Peru.
These
Cammels
though
amongst
us
rarely
seene
,
Yet
frequent
where
your
Lordship
oft
hath
beene
In
your
long
Travells
:
may
the
world
perswade
The
rich
Commerce
and
noblenesse
of
your
Trade
.
Time
so
contracts
us
,
that
we
cannot
dwell
On
all
in
which
you
Merchants
most
excell
:
Yet
honor'd
Sir
,
what
's
in
this
place
deny'd
Shall
in
Pacatus
Status
bee
supply'd
.
The
fifth
Show
.
AS
the
last
had
a
relation
to
the
Company
in
generall
,
so
this
hath
reference
to
his
Lordship
in
particular
,
as
he
is
a
noble
Merchant
;
having
it
hereditary
from
his
worthy
Father
Mr.
William
Garway
,
who
was
not
onely
a
great
Benefactor
to
the
Right
Worshipfull
Society
of
the
Drapers
,
but
an
indulgent
Educator
of
divers
yong
men
,
who
have
since
prov'd
great
and
Eminent
adventurers
;
some
attaining
even
to
the
prime
Magistracy
of
this
our
Metropolis
.
The
next
Modell
presented
to
the
publick
view
is
a
Ship
,
which
as
it
hath
all
accomodatings
and
ornaments
belonging
to
such
a
Vessell
;
so
it
is
also
decored
with
the
Armes
of
the
nine
Companies
of
Merchant-adventurers
,
of
which
his
Lordship
hath
bin
,
and
is
at
this
present
free
:
the
trouble
of
the
place
,
the
presse
of
so
mighty
a
confluence
,
with
the
necessity
of
time
,
in
the
solemnity
of
such
a
Feastivall
Day
(
then
limited
)
will
not
afford
it
a
speech
:
which
I
the
rather
omit
;
because
in
the
last
representation
of
the
like
,
the
excellency
of
Merchandise
,
the
commodity
of
shipping
,
with
the
antiquity
and
profit
of
Navigation
was
delivered
at
large
:
I
therefore
come
to
the
sixt
and
last
.
which
is
AN
artificiall
Architecture
best
able
(
for
the
Worke-man-ship
)
to
commend
it selfe
,
and
being
apparent
to
the
publick
view
,
lesse
needeth
my
description
.
It
presenteth
the
calamities
of
War
,
&
the
blessednesse
of
peace
,
Status
Pacatus
;
bearing
the
Title
of
the
whole
Triumph
:
In
one
part
thereof
are
exprest
to
the
life
,
the
figures
of
Death
,
Famine
,
Sicknesse
,
strage
,
&c.
in
the
other
Prosperity
,
Plenty
,
Health
,
Wealth
,
but
especially
the
free
and
frequent
Preaching
of
the
Word
and
Gospell
.
I
desire
not
to
swell
these
few
pages
to
small
purpose
,
therefore
thus
briefly
of
both
.
Peace
is
the
Tranquility
,
and
calme
quiet
of
Kingdomes
,
free
from
Section
,
tumult
,
uproares
and
faction
;
a
Plantation
of
rest
,
ease
and
security
;
with
all
the
flourishing
ornaments
of
earthly
felicity
:
peace
is
the
end
at
which
War
aimeth
:
Honour
the
fruits
of
peace
;
and
good
Goverment
the
ground
of
either
,
asking
no
lesse
wisedome
to
preserve
it
,
then
valour
to
obtain
it
:
for
Concord
and
Unity
maketh
a
mite
to
increase
to
a
Magazin
,
when
discord
and
debate
in
any
publick
Weale
,
or
private
society
,
lesseneth
a
mountaine
to
a
Mole-hill
;
and
therefore
Pacem
te
poscimus
omnes
.
Now
of
the
contrary
,
War
is
of
two
sorts
,
Civill
,
or
Forraigne
.
Domesticke
War
is
the
over-throw
and
ruine
of
all
Estates
,
and
Monarchies
,
and
the
incendiary
of
whatsoever
is
most
execrable
,
begetting
contempt
of
God
,
corruption
of
manners
,
and
disobedience
to
Magistrates
:
change
of
Lawes
,
neglect
of
Justice
,
and
dis-estimation
of
Learning
and
liberall
Arts
:
But
forraigne
Warre
is
that
)
by
Plato
,
cald
a
more
gentle
and
generous
contention
)
onely
lawfull
,
being
undertooke
to
propagate
true
Religion
;
or
to
procure
a
continuance
of
Peace
.
Any
War
may
be
begun
with
great
facility
,
but
is
ended
with
much
difficulty
;
neither
is
it
in
his
power
to
end
it
who
begins
it
:
to
raise
a
combustion
is
in
the
power
of
any
Coward
,
but
to
appease
it
lyes
onely
in
the
mercy
of
the
Conquerour
:
&
therefore
much
safer
and
better
is
certaine
peace
,
than
hoped
for
Victory
:
the
first
is
in
our
Will
,
the
latter
in
the
Will
of
the
Gods
.
Ergo
Fames
,
pestis
,
Bellum
grassantur
in
omnes
,
Vivere
si
vultis
,
vivite
jam
melius
.
By
War
,
Plague
,
Famine
,
(
loe
)
the
people
fall
;
Then
better
live
:
if
you
will
live
at
all
.
The
more
to
illustrate
this
Tryumph
,
it
is
graced
by
the
Company
of
Artillery
men
compleatly
armed
,
to
expresse
Warre
:
and
the
Livery
and
gown-men
being
the
Embleme
of
Peace
.
I
come
now
to
the
Speech
,
delivered
by
The
Genius
of
the
City
.
W
Ar
,
to
the
unexperienc'd
,
pleasant
showes
,
But
they
who
in
the
Progresse
and
the
Close
Shall
trace
it
,
know
it
horrid
;
'T
is
a
time
Destin'd
,
to
the
revenge
,
and
scourge
of
Crime
:
A
time
,
when
numerous
armies
,
with
the
stresse
Of
mailed
men
,
and
harnest
Horses
,
presse
Grones
from
the
trembling
Earth
(
with
feare
assounded
)
And
with
the
reeking
gore
of
slaine
and
wounded
Drencht
her
in
stead
of
Raine
:
when
like
shooting
Comets
.
It
's
lightning
bolts
the
thundring
Cannon
vomets
;
Quaking
the
bellowing
Ayre
:
when
shrill
alarmes
,
Rushing
of
rowted
Troopes
,
clashing
of
Armes
Render
a
noise
;
as
hidious
and
as
loude
,
As
a
tumultuous
sea
in
Tempest
plow'd
:
When
slaughter
strowes
the
crimson
plaine
with
Courses
,
Men
combat
men
,
inraged
Horses
Horses
:
When
Massacre
,
(
all
quarter
quite
denying
)
Revells
amidst
the
flying
,
crying
,
dying
.
It
is
a
Time
when
Stratagem
surrounds
,
And
the
beleagured
City
close
impounds
:
When
mounted
Ordnance
with
their
streporous
peale
(
Warrs
Dialect
)
on
both
sides
raile
;
and
deale
Death
at
each
dire
discharge
:
When
pinching
need
Of
food
,
hath
forc'd
the
famish'd
Motherfeed
On
her
'fore-starved
Babe
;
and
Hunger
raves
So
fiercely
,
Men
eate
men
out
of
their
Graves
:
When
Plague
makes
friend
,
the
friend
;
brother
,
the
brother
;
The
Harmlesse
,
armelesse
;
murder
one
another
:
When
in
the
Husbands
and
sad
Parents
sight
,
when
forrage
,
pillage
,
strage
,
What
witty
cruelty
,
or
barbarous
rage
Can
or
invent
or
execute
;
designe
To
utter
desolation
:
when
in
fine
Whole
Troy
is
but
one
Bone-fire
,
that
devours
House
,
Pallace
,
Temple
,
and
kicks
downe
those
Towers
That
with
the
Clouds
did
late
alliance
boast
;
Which
in
aspiring
smoke
give
up
the
ghost
.
〈…〉

in
these
Tragick
Scenes
,
Of

And
such
a
time
is
War
,
and
such
the
throwes
Our
neighbour
Nations
travell
now
in
;
woes
Quite
desperate
of
delivery

Prosperity
,
and
Plenty
,
with
increase
Of
all
concatinated
Blessings
smile
With
cheerefull
face
on
this
sole-happy
Isle
.
Let
then
our
gratitudes
and
Pious
cares
Strive
to
entaile
them
to
Us
,
and
our
Heires
:
Lest
that
too
late
,
(
having
sterne
Warre
accited
)
We
wish
that
Peace
;
which
(
whilst
we
had
)
we
slighted
.
One
thing
I
cannot
omit
,
concerning
the
Wardens
and
Committies
of
this
Worshipful
Society
of
the
Drapers
;
that
howsoever
in
all
my
writing
I
labour
to
avoyd
what
is
Abtruse
or
obsolete
:
so
withall
I
study
not
to
meddle
with
what
is
too
frequent
and
common
:
yet
in
all
my
expressions
either
of
Poeticall
fancie
,
or
(
more
grave
History
,
)
their
apprehensions
went
equally
along
with
my
reading
:
neither
,
had
I
travel'd
in
the
least
deviating
path
,
could
I
have
escapt
without
a
just
taxation
:
but
I
come
now
to
the
last
Speech
at
night
.
The
last
Speech
.
THe
Sun
is
set
,
Day
doth
not
now
appeare
(
As
some
few
houres
late
)
in
our
Hemisphere
;
Hesperus
the
Captaine
of
the
Watch
,
hath
tane
Charge
of
the
Starrs
;
and
now
about
Charles-waine
Hath
plac'd
his
Centinels
to
'
attend
the
Moone
,
If
possible
to
make
of
mid-night
noone
.
May
't
ple
〈…〉
you
to
remember
from
old
Nile
,
The
dang
〈…〉
Amphibian
Crocadile
;
How
from
〈◊〉
,
you
this
yeare
have
power
Over
each
seasons
Moneth
,
each
〈◊〉
houre
.
From
Orpheus
,
that
sweet
musick
〈◊〉
parts
,
The
civill
Harmony
of
tongues
〈◊〉
.
The
Fleece
of
Aries
Trumpets
to
eternity
,
The
Drapers
Honour
,
due
to
that
Fraternity
.
We
by
the
Sheep
and
Camels
understand
,
Your
Lordships
Travells
both
by
Sea
and
Land
:
Status
Pacatus
last
doth
intimate
,
The
happinesse
of
this
your
peacefull
state
.
Long
may
it
last
(
of
all
Earths
blessings
best
,
)
Whilst
we
this
night
commend
you
to
your
rest
.
Concerning
these
two
excellent
Artists
,
Master
Iohn
,
and
Master
Mathias
Christmas
,
brothers
;
the
exquisite
contrivers
of
these
Triumphall
Models
;
I
can
onely
say
thus
much
:
their
workeman-ship
exceeds
what
I
can
expresse
in
words
,
and
in
my
opinion
their
performance
of
what
they
undertake
,
is
equall
at
least
,
if
not
transcendent
over
any's
who
in
the
like
kind
shall
strive
to
parralell
them
.
